01/05/2012 STEFFI AND ROBERT LEAVE US

38 NM

ANCHORED OFF WILLIAMS CAY

SUNRISE IN THE EXUMAS: 6: 48 AM

SUNSET IN THE EXUMAS: 5:30 PM

So it was back to the little Staniel Cay airport this morning for a little mass confusion. Seems two of the girls that expected to travel to Nassau had tickets for January 2 and both of the Flamingo airplanes were full. No problem, they hitched a ride on a private plane that was taking off. It’s all good! I am happy to report that Robert and Steffi made it all the way back to New York City’s JFK without a hitch. Steffi ran into a hitch there because all the flights to London were overbooked (remember she travels standby because Robert works for JetBlue) but was able to catch the last flight to Burlington where she could, at least, sleep in a bed and not one of those awful airport chairs.

CHECKING IN FOR THEIR FLIGHT.  NO, REALLY!

THIS PLANE OR THAT ONE.  BOTH WERE FULL, DESTINATION NASSAU
THEIR LUGGAGE WAS ON ONE AND THEY FLEW ON THE OTHER

Dan and I pulled anchor and sailed south to drop the hook south of the Lee Stocking Mooring field just off Williams Cay. After getting all set we discovered that there were two rowdy dogs in the house just above our spot but luckily they soon tired of yapping and our night was dreamy.
